Well, I loaded up one of our holders with some of the ATCs that I've made over the years. Wow, some even go back to 2005. I had no idea that I had created so many Artist Trading Cards! I hung 25 ATCs from each arm, for a total of 150 ATCs on this holder. I also tied different ribbons and fibers onto the top of some of the hanging bags to add some of my personality to my holder. You definitely can fit a lot more. I just didn't want to have to pull all of my ATCs out of my Artist Trading Card albums. I have them categorized according to swap themes, and that would take me forever to find the spot again for each one. We will also be coming out with unstained ATC holders, as well as white ATC holders, but that will be probably towards the end of the summer.

This will be the Artist Trading Card kit of the month that you will receive free with orders placed this March 2012. You will receive one of each of the items shown in the photo below, and one ATC background cut from the Tweety Jill Alice in Wonderland ATC Collage Kit. (an example of three of them are shown on the left side of the photo). This Alice in Wonderland ATC kit also includes 1/3 of a page taken from an antique Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland book that measures 2 1/2 in. x 4 in. This has so many quotes on both sides of the page to cut and use on this Alice ATC and for any future Alice ATCs that you may want to create. There is a stamp image of the Mad Hatter (stamped with black Staz-On ink, so the image can be painted with water color pencils, Copic markers etc.), a 2 1/2 in. x 3 1/2 in. piece of coordinating paper by Prima Marketing, an image cut from our Alice in Wonderland Collage Sheet. Also included is a silver charm of the white rabbit in his Queen of Hearts outfit, a red piece of Irish Waxed Linen that you can use to attach your charm, 1/2 of a Maya Road Cream and Brown plastic clock, a small red brad, and a printed piece of paper with the words Alice in Wonderland, as well as a blank white ATC card to mount your finished ATC, and an ATC sleeve.Here is a close up of the Mad Hatter stamped image and the word phrase, the plastic cream clock, and the silver white rabbit charm and small red brad.

About Me

Owner of yourATCstore an online store full of everything you need for making your Artist Trading Cards. Our Motto: Let us be your Artist Trading Card store! A FREE ATC kit is included with every order, and the kit's themes change every month.
I have a great hubby, 3 wonderful children, 3 grand babies, and a house full of pets. I also love the Caribbean and travel there whenever I can. The beautiful turquoise blue Caribbean Ocean, and their laid back attitude is just what you need to truly relax. I have a great love for nature and love birds both inside my home (2 cockatiels and 1 male canary to be exact), and the feather friends in my backyard.
I started making greeting cards in 1992 and have been creating artwork ever since. I make scrapbooks from our family vacations, do altered artwork, needlework, knitting, collage, and of course have a huge addiction to ATCs! You can often find me at the computer, in my office, on the phone with 2 birds; one on each shoulder, cooking, reading an art book or magazine, or in my workshop.
